Take That have managed to remain at the top of the UK Albums chart for the sixth week in a row. The British boyband will spend another week at Number One with their latest album, ‘Progress’ after having sold just over 430,000 copies in the past week.
The band broke first-week sales records when the album came out in November, however the Take That boys have now exceeded expectations by selling over two million copies to date. Rihanna came in at Number Two with her latest release, ‘Loud’. The album was released on the same week as Take That’s ‘Progress’, but has been held back into second place every week by the British boyband.
Other artists who have done well during the Christmas season include Olly Murs, who earned Number Four with his self-titled album and Michael Buble, who remained at Number Three, earning his sixty-second week in the Albums chart with ‘Crazy Love’.
X Factor winner Matt Cardle has retained his place at the top of the UK Singles chart with ‘When We Collide’. The song, which is a renamed pop rendition of Biffy Clyro’s ‘Many of Horror’ managed to outsell ‘What’s My Name’ by Rihanna (featuring Drake), which earned the Number Two place.
The highest new entry was earned by Katy B (featuring Ms. Dynamite), who debuted at Number Four with her single ‘Lights On’.
